The boing ball is dead ugly. It is gay, in the new sense of the word, not the old meaning. :-P


I'm sick of the damn ball, and I hate the word "Boing"
"Get boinged" just sounds so dumb.

I was telling someone who's never heard about Amiga about the OS, and showed him a screenshot on the web and it had the words "Get boinged" blazing acrossed the screen, it didn't impress him and I felt silly trying to advocate something with such a dumb slogan in it.

I don't mind the ball if it's conservative, ie a small ball in the top left corner as in OS4, but the balls balls balls everywhere obsession drives me nuts.

I don't really like the pretentious overtone in "So the world may know" either.  I don't know, maybe I'm just grumpy.
I like the checkmark though.
